The battle for a place in the Champions League final begins in earnest tonight, as Juventus host Real Madrid in the semi-final first-leg in Turin, with English referee Martin Atkinson, in charge of ensuring order is maintained on the pitch.

Juventus will be hoping that Alvaro Morata can help them defeat his former club, with manager Massimiliano Allegri opting for the young Spaniard in attack, alongside Carlos Tevez. The Italians look to be going with a 4-3-1-2 system.
